If so, what should it say? The english documentation is indeed wrong here. The XCF format uses compression. Nothing fancy, but it uses a lossless run-length encoding scheme. The docs claim that each byte of image data would equal one byte in the XCF file. That's just plain wrong. I would suggest that this entire section is removed. It's probably worth noting that XCF files can become large and that they can be compressed uing for example gzip.
